Keefe played in 59 games for the Lumberjacks in the 2022-23 season and totaled 13 points on four goals and nine assists.
As a Boston University commit, he will one day face off against his own father in the Beanpot as his dad, Jerry Keefe, is the head coach of Northeastern University's men's hockey program.
This summer, the left handed shot, defenseman suited up for team USA in the Hlinka-Gretzky Cup and played under former Musketeer head coach, Luke Strand.
